Pat Kienzlepicklelady@cox.net ﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿Elaine was once a thriving town in the Mississippi River Delta. There were five grocery stores, restaurants, a movie theater, etc.It is now a struggling town in the poorest county of Arkansas.

﻿﻿Birdhouses continue to go up in Elaine.

Schools closedin 2006 and the declining town suffered even more. After a long bus ride, students return home to few positive activities.The Lee Street Community Center has activities for familiesandactivities for the whole community downtown. Please consider a donation to keep the center and park open. Their affect in Elaine continues to grow.

﻿﻿

EVEN A $10 DONATION HELPS KEEP THE PARK OR COMMUNITY CENTER OPEN ONE HOUR.

We have four plastic gourd houses made for purple martins. We hope the martins will eat lots of mosquitoes outside our back door.
